A wireless message received last night at 8 o’clock from the Aorangi en route from San Francisco, stated that the vessel would arrive at Wellington at 6 o’clock this evening. The Aorangi was 270 miles from port, and was experiencing a fresh south-westerly b-eeze, moderate sea, and clear weather. The new Maori “king,” Te Rata, accompanied by a retinue of forty natives, journeyed from Waahi to Te Koupa on Friday last. They were received in a large meeting-house, which had been specially erected, flags being hoisted, and guns fired in a salute of welcome (says the Auckland “Star”). Since Friday a large gathering of Maoris has been feasting and drinking, and the korero will probably continue while the supply of food holds out. Resolutions have been adopted to drop drink and tohungaism and embrace Christianity, Prominent among Te Rata’s following are Rawhiti (private secretary), Ahuriri (prime minister), Herowine (brother of the late Major Te Wheoro), and Taingakawa (son of William Thomson, the “King-maker”). When you go visiting —don’t have a headache, and be out of sorts. Cany Stearns’ Headache Cure, make your stay pleasant. Headache relieved immediately. *
